Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We verify these assumptions and validate the performance of our algorithms on real data. (Abstract) In Section 3, we empirically demonstrate how to overcome these obstacles on real-world data, and reduce the overall probing problem to the parallel edge case. (Section 1.1)

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Greedy probing
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any concrete access (link, explicit statement) to the source code for the methodology described.
Open Datasets Yes This dataset contains hourly average traffic speeds on road segments throughout New York City. It covers four years of traffic estimates in New York City estimated from approximately 700 million taxi trips from 2010-2013 [Donovan and Work, 2017].
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions evaluating performance on data, but does not provide specific details on train/validation/test splits of the dataset with percentages or counts for reproducibility.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory amounts) used for running its experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not provide specific ancillary software details (e.g., library or solver names with version numbers) needed to replicate the experiment.
Experiment Setup Yes The setup is as follows. For each source-destination pair, we fix a canonical path p0 and its length (at a certain time). For every other path p, the distribution Xp used is the discrete, empirical distribution of its path length in all past time steps where length of p0 is within 5% of . We use two different values for parameter δ : δ = 0.1 and δ = 0.01. We set = 0, so that we seek an exact shortest path with probability 1 δ .
